Startup executive and investor with a background as CFO, COO, and VC investment manager in Crypto and FinTech. I build scalable financial and operational systems, lead fundraising efforts, and help teams move faster through AI-driven automation and clear, data-backed decision-making. I thrive in high-velocity environments and enjoy combining strategic depth with a practical, hands-on and analytical approach. I am particularly interested in senior roles in finance, investments, or operations, as well as positions at investment funds on either the investing or the operational side. Based in Zurich and open to hybrid or remote roles.
